II. Background
Under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35), the NRC recently submitted a request for renewal of an existing collection of information to OMB for review entitled, “Suspicious Activity Reporting using the Protected Web Server (PWS).” The NRC hereby informs potential respondents that an agency may not conduct or sponsor, and that a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.
The NRC published a Federal Register notice with a 60-day comment period on this information collection on September 8, 2016 (81 FR 62179).
1. The title of the information collection: Suspicious Activity Reporting using the Protected Web Server (PWS).
2. OMB approval number: 3150-0219.
3. Type of submission: Extension.
4. The form number if applicable: Not applicable.
5. How often the collection is required or requested: On occasion. Reporting is done on a voluntary basis, as suspicious incidents occur.
6. Who will be required or asked to respond: Nuclear power reactor licensees provide the majority of reports, but other entities that may voluntarily send reports include fuel facilities, independent spent fuel storage installations, decommissioned power reactors, power reactors under construction, research and test reactors, agreement states, non-agreement states, as well as users of byproduct material (e.g. departments of health, medical centers, steel mills, well loggers, and radiographers.)
7. The estimated number of annual responses: 124.
8. The estimated number of annual respondents: 62.
9. An estimate of the total number of hours needed annually to comply with the information collection requirement or request: 248 hours.
10. Abstract: NRC licensees voluntarily report information on suspicious incidents on an ad-hoc basis, as these incidents occur. This information is shared with authorized nuclear industry officials and Federal, State, and local government agencies using PWS. Information provided by licensees is considered OFFICIAL USE ONLY and is not made public.
Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 26th day of January 2017.
For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
